I'm usually on a 30-day cycle and have PCOD. I've been going through fertility treatment and started taking Duphaston from the 16th day. My period was due on the 5th, and now it's the 12th, but I still haven't gotten it. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. Should I stop taking Duphaston, or is there a chance I'll get my period while still on it?

Best would be to consult gynaecologist who is treating. Otherwise wait for one more week for periods then repeat pregnancy test with morning sample urine, if negative then stop Duphaston.

In what way can gestational diabetes hurt a baby?

Raised blood sugar may increase the risk of early labor and delivery before the due date. Sometimes early delivery may be recommended because the baby is large.

I'm kind of worried because I missed my period. My last one started on March 3rd and I took a home pregnancy test on April 5th, which came out positive. I also got a BETA HCG test the same day and the levels were at 309.1 mIUml. Can you let me know if these results definitely mean that I'm pregnant? And if so, is there any indication from the HCG levels about whether it's a healthy pregnancy?

Your pregnancy test results are positive. In order to determine whether it is a healthy pregnancy, you will have to consult an obstetrician and undergo a panel of antenatal blood tests and scans.

My sister is 36 weeks pregnant and just got a Color Doppler done attached the report. Can you check if there are any complications or risks of blood loss during surgery? Would really appreciate your input, especially from Dr. Wadhwa.

It's understandable you're concerned, especially with a Color Doppler scan at 36 weeks. While Color Doppler is a safe and non-invasive procedure, it can reveal potential issues that might require intervention during surgery. The primary concern is not the Color Doppler itself, but rather the findings it reveals, which could impact surgical risks.
